How to set "org.w3c.css.sac.parser" system property?

In this ParserFactory.java

String className = System.getProperty("org.w3c.css.sac.parser");
if (className == null) {
    throw new NullPointerException("No value for sac.parser property");  //line 35
} else {
    return (Parser)(Class.forName(className).newInstance());
}

When I run this DemoSAC.java file as Java Application in Eclipse, I got

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException: No value for sac.parser property
at org.w3c.css.sac.helpers.ParserFactory.makeParser(ParserFactory.java:35)

What exactly is the "org.w3c.css.sac.parser" property? How do I set it under Windows? What should I set it to?

Thanks!

Solution

  • If you don't want to modify code, you can also set a Java property in Eclipse's Java launch configuration dialog. You specify a "VM option" in the "Arguments" tab . To set the property to "org.w3c.flute.parser.Parser" as suggested by javamonkey79, you would specify:

    -Dorg.w3c.css.sac.parser=org.w3c.flute.parser.Parser
